CLAREMONT - The Claremont planning commission approved Tuesday night a tentative map for 21 detached, residential condominium units on a 1.75 acre site on the southwest corner of Indian Hill Boulevard and Vista Drive.

"I want to say this has been a real pleasure," said planning commissioner Martin McLeod at the meeting about the applicant, Olson Company Housing, LLC, on working out a compromise between the neighbors and the company.

Added planning commission chair Jeff Hammill: "The process worked well for the neighborhood and the applicant."

The single family homes will be sold at market rate with the exception of three units sold at moderate-income housing pursuant to the Claremont's Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, according to a planning commission agenda report.

The homes, according to the agenda report, range from about 1,340 to 1,760 square feet in area and the homes are proposed to be two stories in height.

Each unit, which has three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, will have an attached two-car garage. There will be 15 uncovered guest spaces and a total of 42 private garage spaces, according to the agenda report.

The Claremont City Council, who has the final word, will conduct a hearing on the proposal at a later date.
